Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of edible fungus processing equipment, specifically to an edible fungus auxiliary harvesting device suitable for three-dimensional planting racks. Background Technology

[0002] Edible fungi are large fungi that can be consumed by humans. Specifically, edible fungi are mushrooms that can be eaten. Mushrooms refer to a class of large fungi that can form large fleshy (or gelatinous) fruiting bodies or sclerotia that can be eaten or used for medicinal purposes. They are a common sight on the dining table.

[0003] To achieve higher yields, many places have adopted factory-style indoor cultivation. With the development of industrialized and large-scale edible mushroom cultivation, vertical cultivation racks have been widely used because they can significantly improve space utilization and yield per unit area.

[0004] However, harvesting edible fungi using vertical cultivation racks presents several challenges. The upper layers of the racks are too high, while the lower layers are too low. Harvesting mushrooms on the upper layers requires workers to frequently tiptoe or use footstools or ladders, which is not only inefficient but also poses a risk of slipping and falling. Harvesting mushrooms on the lower layers requires continuous bending or squatting, putting immense pressure on the lower back and potentially leading to lumbar muscle strain over time. This location also suffers from the worst lighting and visibility. Even on the middle layers, the limited spacing between them makes it easy for harvesters' heads, arms, and bodies to collide with the upper racks, resulting in cramped operating space, a poor working experience, high labor intensity, low efficiency, and potential damage to the mushrooms. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an edible fungus auxiliary harvesting device suitable for three-dimensional planting racks that can effectively reduce labor intensity and improve harvesting efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an edible fungus auxiliary harvesting device suitable for three-dimensional planting racks, comprising a movable base, a translation mechanism, a lifting mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a control panel.

[0007] The mobile base is equipped with a push handle on its side and a cabinet on its top. The cabinet has a counterweight on its top and a battery inside. The battery powers the components in each mechanism. The bottom is equipped with omnidirectional wheels with limit function. The control panel is mounted on the push handle of the mobile base and is electrically connected to the electrical control components in other mechanisms via wires.

[0008] The translation mechanism includes an electric slide rail assembly and a mounting base. The electric slide rail assembly is installed on the top surface of the cabinet, and its installation direction is the same as the length direction of the top surface of the cabinet. The mounting base is a rectangular block structure, and its bottom surface is fixedly connected to the top surface of the slider of the electric slide rail assembly. The top surface of the mounting base has mounting screw holes.

[0009] The lifting mechanism includes a gantry frame, a lifting screw assembly, and an auxiliary slide rail assembly. The gantry frame is mounted on the top surface, and the lifting screw assembly is mounted on the gantry frame. The drive motor and reduction gear assembly of the lifting screw assembly are located on the crossbeam of the gantry frame, and the screw is located between the columns of the gantry frame. Its bottom is connected to the mounting base through a screw support seat. The mounting surface of the nut seat of the lifting screw assembly faces opposite to the direction of the moving base push handle. The auxiliary slide rail assembly consists of two vertically arranged slide rails, which are correspondingly mounted on the column surfaces of the gantry frame facing opposite to the direction of the moving base push handle. An auxiliary slider is installed on the slide rail and engages with it for sliding.

[0010] The clamping mechanism includes a mounting plate and a clamping plate. The front and rear of the mounting plate are a connecting surface and a mounting surface, respectively. The middle part of the connecting surface is connected to the mounting surface of the nut seat of the lifting screw assembly, and the two sides are connected to the auxiliary sliders of the auxiliary slide rail assembly. There are two clamping plates, which are respectively installed on both sides of the mounting surface of the mounting plate and form a "concave" structure with the mounting plate. The size of the groove formed is adapted to the size of the lower middle part of the edible fungus cultivation pot and smaller than the size of the upper middle part of the cultivation pot, so as to lock and clamp.

[0011] As an optimization solution in this case, in order to improve clamping stability, an anti-slip silicone pad is installed on the inner side of the mounting plate and the clamping plate, and the shape of the pad is adapted to the shape of the outer wall of the cultivation pot on the edible mushroom planting rack.

[0012] As an optimized solution in this case, in order to facilitate the collection of edible fungi, an edible fungi collection box is installed on the upright surface of the gantry frame facing the movable base push plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom of the collection box has an open structure, and the edge of the opening is provided with a hanging ear, on which a detachable flexible collection bag is suspended.

[0014] Beneficial effects: This utility model combines a movable base, a translation mechanism, a lifting mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a control panel. By translating and lifting the clamping mechanism, the edible mushroom cultivation pots are clamped and transported to a suitable height, transforming high-altitude harvesting into ground-level operation. A single person can easily complete the picking, placing, and transferring of cultivation pots, greatly improving harvesting efficiency, reducing labor intensity, avoiding the need for operators to climb to heights, and eliminating the risk of falls. It is not only highly safe but also efficient and labor-saving. Attached Figure Description
